Gripping and riveting, a fictional retelling of the Salem witch trials from the perspective of a young girl and the devil himself. Award-winning author Turner captures one girl's brave, introspective soul searching amidst a backdrop of fear and blame.
Truth or Lies?
Lidda knew, with a clarity that was like a candle in a dark room, that all had changed; something was loosed in the villageβDevil or notβand they would pay for it, every last man, woman, and child.
Fourteen-year-old Lidda has always known she was different. She longs to escape Salem Village and its stifling rulesβto be free to dance, to sing, to live as she chooses. But when a plague of accusations descends on the village and witch fever erupts, L idda begins to realize that she feels and sees things that others can't, or won't. But how will she expose the truth without being hung as a witch herself?
